Parker v. Grant (In Re Grant)

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that the rebanee placed upon a misrepresentation of marital status in entering into a condominium lease was so negligible the plaintiffs failed to prove that their damages under the lease for unpaid rent were proximately caused by the misrepresentation
• rejecting plaintiffs' argument that the debtor's marital misrepresentation was the \ sine qua non \ and, thus, failing to find materiality with respect to debtor's marital status in a residential lease transaction
• finding no legal causation because unlike professional licensing cases, where evidence of defective work may be anticipated to result from the lack of professional qualifications, a misrepresentation as to marital status does not suggest that damages for unpaid rent may be anticipated
